I have read the read me file and it was not very clear as a difference in upgrading and a new installation and the only thing I got from the upgrading instructions was if you were coming from an older version in the 2.X series.


So to try to keep the questiong short is there any different steps used to upgrade opposed to a new installation?

If so can someone direct me to where these steps are shown? I have searched the forums for the terms upgrading 3.0 and nothing came up and the read me included with the download didnt show anything from what I read either.

Just upload all the files (except cmps_index.php) and then run the install script and select 'upgrade'. I usually skip the config file also as long as the old one and the new one are the same.

From the read me file - Final Steps (Upgrading from vBadvanced CMPS 3.x)
--------------------------
1. If you have not already, ensure that you are running vBulletin 3.6+.
2. As with any program, you should always backup your database before upgrading.
3. Upload all of the new vBadvanced CMPS files in this package over your existing ones, with the exception of the cmps_index.php file (Click here for a list of files).
4. Go to the install file in your browser by going to http://yoursite.com/forum/admincp/vbacmps_install.php. Once there, select the option to upgrade.
